Papi Ricko Latin Kitchen & Lounge

Very nice atmosphere and service 10/10 and the food also 10/10, worth every penny. Came with a large birthday party and orders were taken and executed flawlessly. Music was also nice. Will definitely come again. We had calamari and triple bacon burger, queso and chips and chimichurri steak, all was very nicely cooked to perfection. Lucero was our waiter. She was awesome!

I usually don’t give 5 star reviews on restaurants because most of the time they don’t live up to my expectations, but this was a great experience. Most of the time when you see neon signs and grass walls, I automatically think that the restaurant put more into aesthetics than into the food and service. This restaurant has the aesthetics, service, and great food. I’m not even a fan of Mexican food typically, but I was pleasantly surprised. Our waitress, Marien, was so sweet and attentive the whole time we were there. We had wings, surf and turf tacos, birria and shrimp tacos, as well as drinks, and elote corn. Everything was made fresh and flavorful. It was a lot of people in the restaurant when we came around 1:30, which was great for our small trio. The parking is also validated for 3 hrs. The presentation was fun and nice. The prices are affordable and they don’t skimp on the portions. Will definitely be back!!

5 STARS! They validate parking! The vibe was great. Menu was great. Pricing is reasonable. I had the shrimp tacos 🌮 - They were 10/10! DJ played a great set and the staff was very friendly and helpful! Thanks Fernando! We had a great time and will definitely be back. This is a small venue, you may want to call ahead.

I have to admit, I wasn't too sure about this place based on some of their previous reviews but I'm so glad I gave them a try! Met up with a friend for lunch around noon on a Friday and was able to walk in and sit with no wait time. They do state it gets busy starting around 7 pm. The ambiance and vibes are GIVING! Dark Garden Club vibes! Floral and greenery all around the restaurant with music lights all around to give it that club vibe. Ordered their 3 Campechano tacos which came with rice and refried beans. They were AMAZING! The corn tortillas were not hard at all and the meat was very well marinated and cooked perfectly so that it didn't taste old or rubbery. The rice and beans also were very well seasoned and it paired with my tacos perfectly. Our server Fernando was nothing short of amazing, efficient, and very friendly! My friend and I also shared a hookah. They do have plenty of bar seating with patio seating as well. Parking does look small and cramped which I can see it being a problem during peak hours but there is side street parking as well. No issues during lunchtime though. I will be returning to try other things on their menu.

We had such a great experience! Our server Fernando M., was amazing! Everyone was literally so nice, customer service was fantastic. Would highly recommend this spot, the atmosphere, the staff, the food, the drinks, it was all 10/10.

I went for my birthday and I would definitely suggest going. I was nervous about previous reviews but I think most of the negative ones were when they first opened. I had the Barria tacos and they were delicious! The street tacos were amazing too! The drinks were so fun and delicious. Our service was great and there wasn’t a wait. The ambiance is the best part of this place! It’s like a fun Miami club. We had the churro cart and they brought a sign out and lights to sing. So much fun!

I have given this places 2 tries and I’m highly impressed. You have to try the Aguachiles- they are spicy. Also, try the chipotle shrimp pasta. The music is very good and I got a virgin peach mojito and it was amazing. Great work with the flavors. Marien was our server and she was super friendly and very very nice. I liked her.

We had such a great experience at Papi Ricko Latin Kitchen & Lounge! Our server Angel was absolutely fantastic, super attentive, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed. My friends ordered the Carne Asada and fish tacos, and I had the queso plus the brunch burger. Everything was so delicious and perfectly seasoned. You can really taste the love and care in every dish. The atmosphere was lively and fun, the kind of place you just want to hang out and stay awhile. Can’t wait to come back!
